Green Landscaping: Greenacres

Natural Landscaping Tool Kit

Rights-of-way are logical and very desirable locations for
natural landscaping. The continuity of ownership simplifies
installation and maintenance. The costs of maintaining the
right-of-way can be significantly reduced. In Illinois, Commonwealth
Edison has begun a natural landscaping program along several
right-of-way segments within the Chicago metropolitan area and at
power generating facilities. Shown here is the planting process at
one of the demonstration locations.
